You'd have been forgiven for thinking that it was nearer Christmas time than summer time here this morning. What on earth is going on with our weather? Having said that, as I type this the sun has come out and the clouds are clearing away to reveal lovely blue sky - such a lovely change from the grey that we've had for most of this year.
Anyway, here I am with a quick post to show a card I've made for a couple of challenges.
I used a Tilda from last year's Christmas collection, which I stamped onto watercolour card and painted with DIs and markers. The pretty paper is from a Magnolia collection from a few years ago and I still love it. It goes well with Kraft card, I think, which is why I've chosen Kraft for my card base, the sentiment and the fancy circle (Spellbinders) behind the image.
There's a good dollop of sparkle on my card: frantage (my latest addiction) here and there and Glimmer Mist on the flowers.
I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Ribbon Girl (Magnolia Only) - Sparkle
Midweek Magnolias - Sparkle
Tilda's Town - Christmas
Nearly the weekend! Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs
